In the period of the upswing in the natural sciences and technology after 1850, the view of a new freedom emerged from France, also in art. The whole of European art profited from this. It was an optimistic commitment to a new perspective that significantly influenced Camille Corot. In the middle of this period, Daubigny was born into a family of artists in Paris in 1817. First he received painting lessons from his father Edmond Francois Daubigny, who is known as a miniature painter. At the age of 17 Charles Francois Daubigny became a restorer at the Louvre. A few years later he acquired the routine to paint landscapes in the classical manner. Soon he can boast of his first exhibition successes in Paris.
Daubigny, however, is looking for his own approach, as he does not want to depict landscapes in a romanticising way, like many of his contemporaries before him. The subjective should be left out. He is looking for the pure image of nature, unvarnished and immediate. In spite of this different attitude, he joined the 'School of Barbizon', a kind of painter community of like-minded people, where he met the painters Jules Dupré and Theodore Rousseau, who still represent the romantic view. What is new about the view of the painters' community is to sketch on the canvas in the open air and to finish it in the studio. In order not to intensify this romanticising style, he selects the most unattractive and unimpressive motifs for his subjects, which he seeks for himself. He finds them mainly in the surroundings of Paris. Among his pictures, for example, there are themes such as "The confluence of the Seine and the river Oise", a truly unspectacular scenery, but one that captivates with something new. It is the light, the clarity and the ingenious simplicity that is reflected in Daubigny's paintings.
His pictures show the light in all its beauty and naturalness, in his pictures of spring or of the most diverse sun and moonrises. He captures the radiant summer light with a different mood than the twilight, than at the grape harvest in Hebst or the light in winter. His pictures are mostly structured, one third is scenery and landscape in the foreground and two thirds are generously devoted to the sky and space in the most diverse light. Later Daubigny travels to the Channel Coast of France, Normandy, Burgundy and the Mediterranean coast, and he always finds different light and colour phenomena. The true reproduction of nature with simple means, that is the summary which Daubigny masterfully succeeds in. His paintings influenced the painters who worked after him, such as Claude Monet and Paul Cézanne, as well as most of the French Impressionists.
